North West Treatment Hub (NWTH) Growth Program – Request for Expressions of Interest - SWC-WS3500476434

Sydney Water is upgrading the treatment plants at Castle Hill, Rouse Hill and Riverstone and linking them to create the North West Treatment Hub (NWTH). 

An Alliance delivery model has been chosen for the delivery of the NWTH Growth Program.

The project Scope includes liquid stream works at Rouse Hill Water Recycling Plant, Biosolids Amplification at Riverstone Waste Water Treatment Plant, new sludge transfer pipelines, pumping stations and associated facilities. Further liquid stream upgrade works are also required at the facilities at Castle Hill and Riverstone.

The NWTH Growth Program is a large-scale, complex systems integration project that requires the coordinated delivery of multiple assets that must work together, integration with both Sydney Water’s water networks and water treatment asset bases as well as account for any impacts on operating plant and brownfield facilities.

Through this Expressions of Interest (EOI) process, Sydney Water invites Proponents (comprising of one or more companies) to demonstrate they are the right Alliance Partners to deliver the NWTH Growth Program outcomes effectively and efficiently through a successful alliance. The right Alliance Partners will be those that:

•understand and appreciate the NWTH Growth Program outcomes and delivery challenges

•are aligned commercially; 

•can effectively integrate to create and sustain the delivery environment required for success; and 

•bring the right suite of capabilities, behaviours and mindsets. 

An industry briefing session will be held as an online project presentation to registered participants during the week commencing 15th July 2022.
